Switching to milk/12 month freding schedule?

Once my baby turned one I just went straight to whole milk, she had had a little taste before and liked it so I wasn't worried, plus my other two kids always Loved it too. I just give her a sippy cup of milk in the morning and one for her to have towards nighttime, she usually has it a little before or during dinner. No bottles after one!! If he's a good eater I wouldn't stress too much about the milk, after one they don't have to have it so much, mostly for the calcium and vitamin d but the rest of their nutrients come from food now!

When you say no bottles after one do you mean the formula?? Or like a bottle/sippy cup? Thank you for the info!

I mean that you shouldn't be using bottles at all anymore, for anything, formula or just milk!! They say switch to a sippy cup or even better a cup with a straw is best! They definitely don't need formula after one but I understand there are mom's that choose to breastfeed longer than one and that's fine but formula is so expensive I would never continue that past one unless your baby is maybe underweight and they were told to start a toddler formula? Otherwise just going to a milk of your choice is great and they shouldn't get more than 16 ounces of it a day, that's why I just do one 8 ounce in the morning and another 8 ounces at night. Yes!! Transitioning can be hard 😳

My daughter gets 8oz of milk when she wakes up and 8oz of milk when she goes to bed. Both in a bottle, she will drink water from a cup but not milk yet. Her pediatrician recommended to be fully off the bottle by 15 months. I am going to work on it over the summer while I am off of work. She seems to prefer food now over the milk.

We slowly added in milk a few ounces at a time with formula before he was one. Our pediatrician said try to get away from bottles & use sippys or straw cups only.
Here’s our schedule right now, he’s almost 13 months now. Not perfect but 🤷🏻‍♀️
6:30 - sippy with 4-6 oz milk
7 - breakfast
9:30 - sippy with 2-4oz for nap
11:30 - lunch
1:30 - sippy with 2-4oz for ✨attempted✨ 2nd nap
2:30-3 - snack
4:30-5 dinner
6:30-7 bottle with 6-8 ounces

We’re trying to get away from the nighttime bottle & milk at nap time! I feel like there’s a lot of pressure to do this & that but as long as baby is happy & healthy it’s a win in my book!

We mixed half and half for about a week and then fully made the switch. He's done really well with the transition to whole milk, but we're struggling to switch fully to sippy cups. He just doesn't like them 😅

Thanks! He’s been fully sippy cup for a few months now, just can’t get him interested in a straw cup haha yeah he’s like 96th percentile for weight so my pediatrician hasn’t said anything about toddler formula haha

Thank you! This schedule aligns really well w his current meals/wake windows so I’m gonna give this a shot!

My son had huge fits over every sippy cup but his grandma found the dr browns transitional sippy cups and the first time I gave him one he never looked back!

I replaced an ounce of formula with whole milk every couple days and within a little over a week my daughter was transitioned to the milk. She also LOVED the formula and only had baby food as her solids. So I started introducing fuller meals of what I'm eating at regular meal times. She was already adjusted to eating little baby snacks in between. Now, even though up until she was a year old she wanted formula constantly, she's eating normally and only has some milk to fall asleep at bedtime and nap time.
